Political Mysteries
When the wild bells rang out the old year and rang in
the new the same old political clangor rang out from firesides, and increased the radio-static. The politicians as a class
are not facing the vital issues that concern the future of our
country.
On the national front one finds the familiar plans of the
Administration being presented under new names, but all
carefully modeled to harmonize with President Roosevelt's
views and programs. The theory of spending the taxpayers
money through a streamlined Federal machine is not new.
If the President controls the 1940 Congress as he has controlled all other sessions the national debt limit will be raised
above 45 billion dollars. That is sure to inci'ease rates of taxation. The budget will continue to run in the red.
The President gets all the money that he is authorized
to spend, from Congress. The legislative branch of the Government, and not the President, is responsible to the people for the course of our Government. Any changes in the
tax laws, amendments to the labor laws, restoring relief to
states and local comimunities, changes in the trade treaties
. as well as the decentralization of any Federal authority, is
entirely up to Congress.
Will Congress return to the Constitutional method and
go back to the old American way of receiving the "recommendations" from the Chief Executive—and give them proper consideration? After that will Congress manufacture its
own laws?
If Congress goes through this session, as it has in the
past few years, and leaves behind a rubber-stamp record,
then, don't blame the President. Blame Congress! On the
other-hand if Congress rises to its responsibilities there will
be two schools of political thinking restored in this country.
The voters have been kept in the dark long enough. Demo-
. crats and Republicans should put an end to their political
mysteries. ^ . . , ■ .
Country of His Adoption
By his own efforts—his application, diligence and perseverance—he has risen to great heights, even though he
can never be President of the United States. Why?
He is not native-born. He came to this country as an
immigrant lad. Had the benefit of some little schooling over
there but didn't know- the language here, was a stranger in a
strange land. Had to use his hands—yes, his fists, too—but,
withal, used his head likewise. Thought things out. And was
not afraid to work. In fact, worked his way up. Worked so
hard at it that today he is President of General Motors, the
world's largest manufacturer of automobiles.
A former alien, many times facing terrible discouage-
ments in his youthful zeal to .overcome strange obstacles,
what does he think of the United States today? Expecially
when so many with far greater- advantages are wont to be
perplexed and distraught with the the fallacious conviction
that the world is finished, that the frontiers are vanished
and that to the young or old no hope is left?
Listen to one paragraph in a talk by Big Bill Knudsen,
* recently delivered, and take renewed hope in our country:
"We are a young nation—a healthy nation—blessed as
no other country on earth with natural resources. We are a
clean people, a working people, who will aways come through
difficulties mainly because we haven't got the patience to
sit around and mope over things. In our industry we use a
-great deal of steel and most of this steel has to be heat-treated to get the proper strength and durability. Let industry
look upon this period of the life in the United States as its
heat-treating period from which we will come out stronger
and more durable."
Mr. Knudsen has abounding faith in the country of his
adoption which should prove contagious among all other American citizens, native or naturalized.
After Thursday Careless Motorists Will Be Subject To
Fine As Police Launch
Drive to Correct Condition
Negligent - and careless motorists who have been violating the
parking ordinances of North Canton will find that after Thursday,
Jan. 11, the local police will be
tagging cars of all violators as
they begin a vigorous drive to remedy these conditions.
The ordinances regulating parking have been in effect for 'quite
some time but the condition has
become worse making it necessary
to enforce them to the limit.
"These ordinances have been in
effect but no real enforcement has
been carried out," stated Mayor
Guy W. Price. "However we intend
to do something about it and see if
this condition can't be remedied."
Cars will be checked very closely
according to Marshal Ray A. Bach-
tel and tickets issued to all violators. First offense calls for a fine
of from $1 to $25 while a second
offense makes' a fine of $10 to $25
mandatory. All cases will be tried
in the mayor's court.
"People parking overtime are
taking up the place for .someone
else who wants to do business in
the community," said Marshal
Bachtel, "and we intend to curb
this practice in the future."
After Thursday, no parking restrictions will be in effect in front
of the Community building, theater, and the entire block surrounding the Citizen's Building and Loan
bank. There was to be no parking
at any time in front of the Jom-
munity building since a state law
prohibits parking in front of public buildings.
Motorists have been particularly
lax on Harmon, McKinley, West
Maple, and Orchard streets, and
not watching the 10-foot clearance
at intersections.
Parking limit on McKinley street
is two hours and this holds for 24
hours per day. Three hour limits
are in effect on West Maple, Orchard and Harmon streets. There
is no parking on East Maple from
the square to McKinley with the
exception of a one hour zone in
front of Harpold's.
"Another practice we intend to
to watch very closely is the habit
some people have formed of parkin"- the wronp- way," said Bachtel.
"This is very dangerous to say the
least and it will have to be stopped."
Ordinance No. 1329 covers the
parking restrictions very thoroughly and it is this ordinance that
will be enforced to the greatest
possible degree.

E. J. Helbig, associated with the
North Canton dairy, was guest
speaker at the recent meeting of
the North Canton Rotary club. He
was introduced by Frank Evans.,
Speaking on "the subject of milk,
Mr. Helbig stated that milk is the
largest industry in the United
States. He further stated that
there are 5,000 farms in the country with an average of five cows
per farm. In other words, 25 million cows are giving milk each day.
Production runs to 100 billion
pounds of milk, enough to float
the "Queen Mary" if it were dumped together.
Distribution of milk was also
touched on by the speaker as he
revealed that 25 ner cent of the
milk produced never leaves the
farm being used for food for cattle and man; five per cent goes
into cheese; four per cent into
evaporated milk; two per cent into
ice cream;, and one per cent into
commercial products such as buttons, billiard balls, fixtures, etc.

the club will have Mr. Schir.dler,
speech instructor at McKinley high
school, with a group of seven boys,
speaking on and demonstrating the

may attend, the club has invited
anyone interested to attend the
meeting at 7 p. m.

A native of Sandusky, Mr. Good-

He has a background of 14 years
experience with the company beginning with the accounting department at Akron in June, 1926.
In October of 1931 he was assigned to special extension sales work
and a year later made commercial
manager at Youngstown before being transferred to Alliance in 1935.
Mr. Williams has been promoted from the positon of commercial

Firemen Answer
29 Calls in '39
Most of the official reports indicate that economic and
human conditions improved duririg 1939. The Department
of Commerce notes substantial gains in neai'ly all directions
up to the New Year.
Our Government officials and and business organizations give some credit for the improvements to sharp spurts
in purchases of products and materials since the new war
began.
The fact of the matter is that there has been a small
reduction of unemployment; small reductions in relief, and
evidences that a period of good business lies ahead. It isn't
hard to figure this out, as one observes how business is
pushing onward on a broad front across the entire country.
The nation's business leaders are inclined to be conservative, and that is another good sign.
If we keep our nose out of this European war-mess the
year 1940 will likely show big business improvem;ents.
Soil Conservation
Land is still wearing out faster than we can restore it,
says a statement from the Agricultural Department issued
in support of greater efforts on the part of the Government
to encourage soil conservation practices.
The insecurity of land resulting from tenant farmers
mpving from one patch to another has influenced the Department of Agriculture to rule against the single crop tenant, and insist that he stay put on the same land, and keep
it from "wearing out."
GEORGE S. ELLIS
General manager of the Park
theater, recently opened in North
Canton, is George S. Ellis, who
came here from East Liverpool
where he had served as manager
of the State and American theaters
for a period of nine years.
Previously he was connected
with the Paramount Publix organization of New York, with theaters
in Philadelphia, Buffalo, and Un-
iontowtR.
Rubbish and Grass Fires
Make up Most Local Calls
North Canton's volunteer fire
partment answered 29 calls, 10 locally, during 1939 according to the
annual report made by Fire Chief
Harry Mohler.
The local calls were confined to
one auto fire, a smoking furnace,
a hot furnace, and seven rubbish
and grass fires. There was no damage to buildings or contents.
Among the outside calls, the
largest the department was called
to were the fires at the
C. S. Harding home at Wil-
lowdale lake, and Avondale, the
latter which claimed the lives of
three persons.
During the year's practice nights
the men laid 4,000 feett of two
and a half inch hose and 1,400 feet
of one and a half inch hose. Truck
mileage for the year was LaFrance,
16 and Reo 195.
New equipment purchased included 300 feet of one and a half
inch hose, 200 feet of two and a
half inch hose, a one and a half
inch fog nozzle, an oxygen tank
and wire cutters.
Elect Officers
Junior Woman's Club Meets
Monday Evening
Election of officers for the coming year was the main event in the
meeting of the Junior Woman's
club at the Community building
Monday evening.
The new president of the group
is Mrs. Robert Krieghbaum, Miss
Helen Ritter, vice president; Miss
Helen Warburton, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Betty Ayers, press reporter; Miss Lois Sinclair, historian; and Miss Lois Sinclair, historian; and Miss Mary Jane Sponseller, social chairman.
The guest for the evening was
Mrs. Blossom Perkins, former
physical education instructor at
Mount Union college.
Final decision is up to the national committee, which will meet In
Washington in late January or early
February. But in the secret deliberations of the executive committee,
sentiment was practically unanimous for the above set-up.
The leaders favored Chicago because of its central location, plus
the fact that it is neutral territory,
since Illinois has no-favorite son.
Also, it is in the heart of the farm
belt, which the Republicans are convinced will be the major battlefield
of the campaign.
The July dates were a compromise. The G. O. P. chiefs abandoned hope of holding their convention after the Democrats. They
saw in Roosevelt's suggestion that
both parties delay selecting then-
tickets until late August or September, an ultimatum that the Democrats intended to stall until fall.

other-hand if Congress rises to its responsibilities there will
be two schools of political thinking restored in this country.
The voters have been kept in the dark long enough. Demo-
. crats and Republicans should put an end to their political
mysteries. ^ . . , ■ .
Country of His Adoption
By his own efforts—his application, diligence and perseverance—he has risen to great heights, even though he
can never be President of the United States. Why?
He is not native-born. He came to this country as an
immigrant lad. Had the benefit of some little schooling over
there but didn't know- the language here, was a stranger in a
strange land. Had to use his hands—yes, his fists, too—but,
withal, used his head likewise. Thought things out. And was
not afraid to work. In fact, worked his way up. Worked so
hard at it that today he is President of General Motors, the
world's largest manufacturer of automobiles.
A former alien, many times facing terrible discouage-
ments in his youthful zeal to .overcome strange obstacles,
what does he think of the United States today? Expecially
when so many with far greater- advantages are wont to be
perplexed and distraught with the the fallacious conviction
that the world is finished, that the frontiers are vanished
and that to the young or old no hope is left?
Listen to one paragraph in a talk by Big Bill Knudsen,
* recently delivered, and take renewed hope in our country:
"We are a young nation—a healthy nation—blessed as
no other country on earth with natural resources. We are a
clean people, a working people, who will aways come through
difficulties mainly because we haven't got the patience to
sit around and mope over things. In our industry we use a
-great deal of steel and most of this steel has to be heat-treated to get the proper strength and durability. Let industry
look upon this period of the life in the United States as its
heat-treating period from which we will come out stronger
and more durable."
Mr. Knudsen has abounding faith in the country of his
adoption which should prove contagious among all other American citizens, native or naturalized.
After Thursday Careless Motorists Will Be Subject To
Fine As Police Launch
Drive to Correct Condition
Negligent - and careless motorists who have been violating the
parking ordinances of North Canton will find that after Thursday,
Jan. 11, the local police will be
tagging cars of all violators as
they begin a vigorous drive to remedy these conditions.
The ordinances regulating parking have been in effect for 'quite
some time but the condition has
become worse making it necessary
to enforce them to the limit.
"These ordinances have been in
effect but no real enforcement has
been carried out," stated Mayor
Guy W. Price. "However we intend
to do something about it and see if
this condition can't be remedied."
Cars will be checked very closely
according to Marshal Ray A. Bach-
tel and tickets issued to all violators. First offense calls for a fine
of from $1 to $25 while a second
offense makes' a fine of $10 to $25
mandatory. All cases will be tried
in the mayor's court.
"People parking overtime are
taking up the place for .someone
else who wants to do business in
the community," said Marshal
Bachtel, "and we intend to curb
this practice in the future."
After Thursday, no parking restrictions will be in effect in front
of the Community building, theater, and the entire block surrounding the Citizen's Building and Loan
bank. There was to be no parking
at any time in front of the Jom-
munity building since a state law
prohibits parking in front of public buildings.
Motorists have been particularly
lax on Harmon, McKinley, West
Maple, and Orchard streets, and
not watching the 10-foot clearance
at intersections.
Parking limit on McKinley street
is two hours and this holds for 24
hours per day. Three hour limits
are in effect on West Maple, Orchard and Harmon streets. There
is no parking on East Maple from
the square to McKinley with the
exception of a one hour zone in
front of Harpold's.
"Another practice we intend to
to watch very closely is the habit
some people have formed of parkin"- the wronp- way," said Bachtel.
"This is very dangerous to say the
least and it will have to be stopped."
Ordinance No. 1329 covers the
parking restrictions very thoroughly and it is this ordinance that
will be enforced to the greatest
possible degree.

E. J. Helbig, associated with the
North Canton dairy, was guest
speaker at the recent meeting of
the North Canton Rotary club. He
was introduced by Frank Evans.,
Speaking on "the subject of milk,
Mr. Helbig stated that milk is the
largest industry in the United
States. He further stated that
there are 5,000 farms in the country with an average of five cows
per farm. In other words, 25 million cows are giving milk each day.
Production runs to 100 billion
pounds of milk, enough to float
the "Queen Mary" if it were dumped together.
Distribution of milk was also
touched on by the speaker as he
revealed that 25 ner cent of the
milk produced never leaves the
farm being used for food for cattle and man; five per cent goes
into cheese; four per cent into
evaporated milk; two per cent into
ice cream;, and one per cent into
commercial products such as buttons, billiard balls, fixtures, etc.

the club will have Mr. Schir.dler,
speech instructor at McKinley high
school, with a group of seven boys,
speaking on and demonstrating the

Firemen Answer
29 Calls in '39
Most of the official reports indicate that economic and
human conditions improved duririg 1939. The Department
of Commerce notes substantial gains in neai'ly all directions
up to the New Year.
Our Government officials and and business organizations give some credit for the improvements to sharp spurts
in purchases of products and materials since the new war
began.
The fact of the matter is that there has been a small
reduction of unemployment; small reductions in relief, and
evidences that a period of good business lies ahead. It isn't
hard to figure this out, as one observes how business is
pushing onward on a broad front across the entire country.
The nation's business leaders are inclined to be conservative, and that is another good sign.
If we keep our nose out of this European war-mess the
year 1940 will likely show big business improvem;ents.
Soil Conservation
Land is still wearing out faster than we can restore it,
says a statement from the Agricultural Department issued
in support of greater efforts on the part of the Government
to encourage soil conservation practices.
The insecurity of land resulting from tenant farmers
mpving from one patch to another has influenced the Department of Agriculture to rule against the single crop tenant, and insist that he stay put on the same land, and keep
it from "wearing out."
GEORGE S. ELLIS
General manager of the Park
theater, recently opened in North
Canton, is George S. Ellis, who
came here from East Liverpool
where he had served as manager
of the State and American theaters
for a period of nine years.
Previously he was connected
with the Paramount Publix organization of New York, with theaters
in Philadelphia, Buffalo, and Un-

Rubbish and Grass Fires
Make up Most Local Calls
North Canton's volunteer fire
partment answered 29 calls, 10 locally, during 1939 according to the
annual report made by Fire Chief
Harry Mohler.
The local calls were confined to
one auto fire, a smoking furnace,
a hot furnace, and seven rubbish
and grass fires. There was no damage to buildings or contents.
Among the outside calls, the
largest the department was called
to were the fires at the
C. S. Harding home at Wil-
lowdale lake, and Avondale, the
latter which claimed the lives of
three persons.
During the year's practice nights
the men laid 4,000 feett of two
and a half inch hose and 1,400 feet
of one and a half inch hose. Truck
mileage for the year was LaFrance,
16 and Reo 195.
New equipment purchased included 300 feet of one and a half
inch hose, 200 feet of two and a
half inch hose, a one and a half
inch fog nozzle, an oxygen tank
and wire cutters.
Elect Officers
Junior Woman's Club Meets
Monday Evening
Election of officers for the coming year was the main event in the
meeting of the Junior Woman's
club at the Community building
Monday evening.
The new president of the group
is Mrs. Robert Krieghbaum, Miss
Helen Ritter, vice president; Miss
Helen Warburton, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Betty Ayers, press reporter; Miss Lois Sinclair, historian; and Miss Lois Sinclair, historian; and Miss Mary Jane Sponseller, social chairman.
The guest for the evening was
Mrs. Blossom Perkins, former
physical education instructor at
Mount Union college.
Final decision is up to the national committee, which will meet In
Washington in late January or early
February. But in the secret deliberations of the executive committee,
sentiment was practically unanimous for the above set-up.
The leaders favored Chicago because of its central location, plus
the fact that it is neutral territory,
since Illinois has no-favorite son.
Also, it is in the heart of the farm
belt, which the Republicans are convinced will be the major battlefield
of the campaign.
The July dates were a compromise. The G. O. P. chiefs abandoned hope of holding their convention after the Democrats. They
saw in Roosevelt's suggestion that
both parties delay selecting then-
tickets until late August or September, an ultimatum that the Democrats intended to stall until fall.
